''Yeager'' was eventually relegated to rear area duties and all-but forgotten even by the SCE personnel who had kept her operational well beyond her expected service life was over. Officially struck from the register and placed in mothballs, with the name reassigned to more modern starships, the ''Yeager'' soon found herself crewed by volunteers guarding the Federation Surplus Depot at [[Qualor II]] as the dawn of the 25th Century approached.

The ''Yeager'' was hastily reactivated, although not recommissioned, in 2403 in order to conduct what was alleged to be an important medical supply run to a beleaguered world in what was once the Romulan Neutral Zone; assigned to Captain [[Braggins, Jennifer|Braggins]], who had found herself out of favour following the events of the Philadelphia's mission to [[Jateran]], the mission was soon discovered to be a set-up. Not only were the crew made up of the dregs of Starfleet, those officers and crew that no Captain in their right mind would want on their ship, illegal weapons had been stored on board, bound for separatist movements on the border. The ship had also been sabotaged so that it would drop out of warp and conveniently be discovered by Starfleet patrols in the area. With the deception discovered, the Yeager was repaired before it could be apprehended and the weapons were instead diverted to a local group of Fenris Rangers where Braggins had contacts.
